I've just had a jiggered night's sleep and now I'm so tired I just want to cry.  Going out to work in half an hour, too.  Oh, this menopause!!  They must have had easier back in the days when women didn't have to work, had domestic help, didn't have to multi-task.    

(Isn't there a smiley for "tired"?)

Zzzzzzzzz

Know how you feel. I'm luckier than some & don't work, so can give into the zzzzzzz.

In the old days women rarely lived pass 50...  World did not adjust yet!;((

Take care!

[dulciana]

Good point, Orrla.  I finished work (piano teaching) at 5pm and by that time the tiredness had gone and I actually felt energised, so it must be suiting me!

I feel much more tired when I'm at home then when I'm at work - not sure why!

Adrenaline?

[Joyce]

Probably because you know you have to keep going Taz. I used to be like that too when I worked. When I got time to sit down, after teatime, sleep would overwhelm me.

[Taz2]

I don't get the sleepy in the evening feeling though. I just seem to feel every little ache and pain when I am not at work - guess it takes my mind off it! Hope I don't feel permanently tired if I ever manage to be in a position to retire  - probably around the age of 80 at this rate!!

I hardly ever have a night of unbroken sleep. If it's not back pain it's itching and if it's not that, then trip to loo  Gosh how I envy my teenage son who could sleep for UK and Oz put together! sigh. Just to go to bed and wake refreshed would be wonderful. I sometimes have a Nana nap because if I sit down, I will fall asleep (10 mins max) but I did outdo myself when I feel asleep in front of my lecturer. I just keeled over into woman beside me  Not my finest hour at uni! She was boring, it was after lunch and it was hot, in my defence. I'm okay like you Taz, when I'm out and about doing stuff but comfy chair and that's that. Feeltired just thinking about it Zzzzzzzzz

[dulciana]

I sympathise, Rose!

[Rose]

Thank you dulciana 

[bev567901]

My sympathies too Rose, no idea where my energy has gone. This time last year I could sleep even with the toilet breaks but now I have no idea how I ever did so much. I never thought age would creep up on me. Hope you have a better night. Bev x

It's early morning and I just get up after another horrible night's sleep.Dread the thought of post op when that pain will only add to the present!

[Ju Ju]

Good morning! Hope you managed to get back to sleep.
